The Swedish Almanac [Den Svenska Almanackan] is the official astronomical almanac in Sweden, with roots going back to the sixteenth century. From 1749 to 1972, it was published with exclusive almanac rights by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (KVA). Subsequently, it has been published by Esselte Almanacksförlag in collaboration with Stockholm Observatory. Its editor since 1977 is Aage Sandqvist. A simpler, but much more widely distributed, version of this almanac (Den Vanliga Almanackan) contains in addition a considerable amount of non-astronomical matter, but the astronomical part of the latter almanac is also produced in collaboration with Stockholm Observatory. The editor for the astronomical part of this almanac since 1977 is also Aage Sandqvist. Both Den Svenska Almanackan and Den Vanliga Almanackan are published each year.
